I'm freaking out , basically what happened is after new years i caught a cold because I kept coming out to smoke a cigarette and it was pretty chilly. But this time I was feeling more of a fatigue than cold It lasted for 2 days,and I also was stupid enough to google the symptoms and it came up that you can feel fatigue when you have HIV, and this is when it hits me. I started thinking of ppl who I had unprotected sex with and i though of this kid it happened 3 years ago. We had sex couple of time he was my bf at that time but all those intercorses lasted no longer than 5 -10 min. I'm really scared to go get tested even though I did my blood work plenty of times after that. I can't stop thinking about it and it got to the poin where I developed an anxiety with panic attacks.

Look online for your nearest testing centre or call your nearest hospital an they will sort you out, im guessing you have would yourself up an by looking up any symptoms you can turn a simple cold into something wayyyy more serious on the internet. I went to have a full check a couple of months ago its easy an you don't need a reason to have it done you can just have a routine check. They just take a blood test, it usually takes two weeks to get the results back so get in as soon as possible or you will just wind yourself up xx
